Can wrong valve clearance cause the engine to stall?
If the valves are incorrectly adjusted it will hurt performance.
Will a broken timing on a ford ranger 2.3 dammage the engine?
It can, because when the timing chain/ belt fails, the pistons and valve are no longer in time, and the valves can be pen when the piston comes back up. This can cause bent valves, and piston damage. this is wrong a 2.3 is not a critical clearance engine the valves will never hit the pistons.
On a 97 deville can erg valve cause the engine to overheat?
It is possible if it was putting too much exhaust back into the engine causing it to run lean. I'd check for any computer codes for the EGR valve. They should tell you what is wrong.
Can changing timing belt cause head gasket problems?
Replacing the timing belt on an Interference engine, and doing it wrong, can cause serious problems. Busted piston, bent valve, cracked head, are a few.
What does a bad modulator valve do?
If the transmission modulator valve is vacuum operated and it goes bad it can allow the engine to suck transmission fluid thru the engine causing the engine to blow blue smoke out the exhaust.
What could be wrong with a Briggs and Stratton 15 hp engine that won't idle kicks back on starting but runs well at speed. Note - had new carb - fw key is ok head has been decoked and valves set.?
Generally, over time, the compression release will get out of adjustment. Remove the overhead valve cylinder cover (the dead cylinder for twin cylinder engine) and adjust the compression release with the cylinder at TDC. Loosen the adjuster locks and set intake valve clearance to between .004in. and .006in. Adjust exhaust valve clearance to between .008in. and .010in. Takes about 3 minutes to do this!
Can the wrong spark plug cause an engine to backfire?
somtimes usually not
Could a new timing chain cause piston rods to break from shaft?
on some engine designs when the timing slips or is wrong the valve train will hit the pistons. something has to break, the valves, pistons, or the rods will bend.
Whats wrong with my small engine Its a Honda clone 6.5 hp engine When i start it I hear small pops and then then it shoots flames out the air filter?

What are the ramifications of using the wrong antifreeze in a 2000 Beetle?
The wrong anti-freeze could cause the water to freeze in the engine. The wrong anti-freeze could cause abnormal corrosion in the radiator.
Why is transmission fluid getting into motor - a 2.9 liter V 6 1990 Ford Ranger.?
I'm not a mechanic / technician but I read once that the modulator valve for the automatic transmission has a vacuum line connected from the valve to the engine and that transmission fluid can be sucked into the engine if something goes wrong with the valve
How do you adjust the valve clearance on a 1993 accord?
They are adjusted with shims. Unless you have a supply of shims, this job is best left to a professional. this is wrong you can adjust the valve lash with a feel gauge intake is .018 to .022 the exhaust is .023 to .027 all in mm make sure the car is cold when you adjust the setting on the valve lash. the order to adjust the valve is when it is at rest
